... The statement came after Washington paused military aid to Kyiv in a stunning move overnight, days after Zelenskiy's talks with Trump descended into acrimony, prompting the U.S. secretary of state to call on the Ukrainian leader to apologise. "Our meeting in Washington, at the White House on Friday, did not go the way it was supposed to be. It is regrettable that it happened this way. It is time to make things right," Zelenskiy posted on X. "My team and I stand ready to work under President Trump's strong leadership to get a peace that lasts," he said. ...

The most significant part of Volodymyr Zelenskyy's olive branch offering to Donald Trump
The Ukraine leader described Friday's Oval Office bust-up with the US president as "regrettable", adding that now "is time to make things right".
Most significantly though was his spelling out of a vision for the first stage of how Russia's war with Ukraine could end.
Pushing back on false claims by Trump allies such as Elon Musk that Mr Zelenskyy wants an endless war, he said that Ukraine is committed to peace and is ready to come to the negotiating table as soon as possible.
Crucially, he said: "We are ready to work fast to end the war, and the first stages could be the release of prisoners and truce in the sky - ban on missiles, long-ranged drones, bombs on energy and other civilian infrastructure - and truce in the sea immediately, if Russia will do the same."
Appealing to the US president's ego, he praised Mr Trump's "strong leadership" and repeated his gratitude for past American support--again responding to criticism from the American commander in chief and his team that he is not showing enough gratitude.

It's been tough for a proud of his People President like Zelenskyy to deal with a Gangster President like Trump; one that demands his Soldiers respect and shuffle their feet in the presence of the Mob Boss.
It's a wonder Zelenskyy didn't wake up with a horse head in his bed this week... or maybe he did.

WTF does the White House want him to do? He's got to be a Trump mind reader to end a war?
JFC Trump is such a petulant child.

The White House, so far, seems to have one simple requirement for peace in Ukraine, the surrender of Ukraine to Pres POutin's unprovoked invasion of a sovereign country.
That's it.
Pres Zelenskyy, understandably, has different priorities and goals for a lasting peace.

Fact check: 33 times Zelensky thanked Americans and US leaders www.cnn.com
So, VP Vance just lied to make a political point?
Or, worse, much worse, VP Vance just lied in a planned ambush of the leader of a country fighting for its life as a sovereign nation?

It was regrettable.
But it was all planned by putins bitch.
From the moment he walked into the meeting he was ambushed over not wearing a suit.
Zelenskyy has thanked the US and Europe profusely many times for the aid that the US was obligated under treaty to provide.
Treaties mean nothing to people with no honor like putin or his bitch.

You're not out praising Trump's speech.

Surely you can find something that will stand up to ridicule?

even though Media Bias/fact check....a check used by some of "you people"

rate "wire" pretty well for factual reporting.
however, that could have been before the biggest scam in news media / political history.
